Abstract excerpt
Genetic fine-structure analysis of X-ray-induced specific-locus mutants in the ad-3 region of two-component heterokaryons of Neurospora crassa has shown that gene/point mutations, multilocus deletions and multiple-locus mutations are induced. When the dose-response curves for these classes of ad-3 mutants were plotted, it was demonstrated that X-ray-induced gene/point mutations (ad-3R) increased linearly with...
